At the heart of Polyend Synth is a collection
of 8 synth engines, each with a unique
style and character. The synth engine is
hosted in a preset that contains a set of
parameters that are specic to each
engine. 3 Preset instances can be loaded
and controlled simultaneously, each with
the same or a combination of Synth
engines. The congurations of lters,
envelopes, and LFOs will depend on the
synth engine loaded and the parameter
settings based on the specic preset. A
blank preset can be initialized to get things
started with a default state if required. The
Synth engines range from traditional single
and multiple oscillators, as well as
subtractive models such as ACD and VAP,
to WTFM, which is a unique spin on the FM
synthesis design. Granular, Wavetable, and
Phase Distortion Synthesis engines are also
included in the available engine models. In
addition to the synth engine, a lter,
envelopes, and modulation can also be
applied to create a full synth voice. These
functions are also congured as part of a
synth preset. An additional feature for synth
control is the Macro function which consists
of 3 dedicated control knobs, each of which
is congured to control a collective set of
parameters. This enables dynamic changes
and modulation of these parameters on the
y. This section covers the basic creation of
synth presets, each of the synth engines and
its parameters, the associated lter
congurations, and the envelopes. These
are all contained in the preset.
